Question

If the equation is solved, which is true?

If -2 - v = 16, then v = 14.0

If -2 + v = 16, then v = 18.0

If -2 + v = 16, then v = 14

If v + -2 = 16, then v = -8

I don't know yet

Answer 1

second option is true:

-2 + v = 16

Explanation:

do them all:

-2 - v = 16

-v = 18; v = -18 (NOT 14) FALSE

-2 + v = 16

v = 18 TRUE

-2 + v = 16

v = 18 (NOT 14) FALSE

v + (-2) = 16

v = 18 (NOT -8) FALSE
